“Hallie was incredible with our dogs! She sent us updates, photos, and videos the whole time we were gone — it was so comforting to see how happy and loved our pups were in her care. It’s such a gift to have someone you can fully trust while you're away. Hallie went above and beyond, and we couldn’t be more grateful. 100% recommend and will absolutely book with her again!”
“Kelsey is the first person we’ve ever left our dogs with through Rover. She came over for a meet and greet and we felt comfortable to leave our fur-babies with her. I was extremely nervous about leaving our dogs with someone other than family but she did such a great job. This has been such a positive experience and we definitely plan to book with her again.”
“We had a great experience with Sophie! She took wonderful care of our two dogs and was very responsive. Left our home in perfect condition. We will definitely use her again.”
“My two dogs loved Erin. One of them is a rescue that has extremely high anxiety, and I was shocked when she sent a pic of him snuggled up to her! That alone told me all I needed to know about Erin. We will definitely be using her again. She kept an eye on the house and it was clean despite my dog's habit of tracking in mud. She also was great to stay an extra night with our babies when I accidentally reserved the wrong dates. I highly recommend Erin.”
About: As a lifetime dog and cat owner, dog walker at a local animal shelter, and puppy foster, I am extremely passionate about animal welfare and very experienced. I have cared for senior dogs, including our family’s beloved boxer-pitt mix who passed in May of 2025, and I currently help my mom wrangle her 120 pound Great Dane named Moose. I fostered puppies of all ages and sizes (and their mamas too on rare occasions) and am very comfortable with all the ups-and-downs of puppy ownership. All that to say, there is no age, size, or energy level range that I haven’t encountered! I don’t mind if your pup needs me to take them out at 3am to potty, needs food that requires 30 minutes of preparation beforehand, or has a medication routine that requires a lot of hiding things in peanut butter. It’s all standard protocol for me! I’d love to meet your pets and give you the peace of mind that they are deeply loved and cared for when they’re with me. I work full-time M-F 7am-4pm, but am able to work from home when needed. I would try to work from home as much as possible when scheduled to petsit, and on days where that is not possible, take half days. My job is thankfully very flexible! I am someone who would rather be overly-cautious to a sometimes ridiculous degree. I will take every precaution to keep your pet and home safe and in a comfortable environment. I am knowledgeable about the health and safety issues when it comes to young puppies and vaccinations/decreasing parvo risk. I value communication and would rather receive too much information about your pet and its routine than too little! Feel free to send me a ten page essay about your pets, their routine, and what steps you’d like me to take to keep them happy, safe, and healthy.
“Caleb was awesome with my dogs and my home. He was clean, took care of everything and walked my dogs regularly. He played with them, sent pics of them and hung out with them! I will definitely use hie again - my dogs were happy when I got home and that's the most important thing!”
“Hannah was wonderful! She stayed at our house with our pups while we visited family. The house was left in excellent condition and our dogs were very happy to spend time with her! Thanks again, Hannah!!”
About: Ive taken care of my first dog since she walked up to me as a stray when I was 6 years old and I asked, “Can I keep her?” 30+ years later, I still occasionally ask, “Can I keep them?” I have basic medical skills, including vaccine administration and can give pills (even if someone likes to spit them out!). I can play, give walks, and have experience with senior dogs. I would love to help care for your beloved pets, too. 💕🐶 I currently work for myself so I can drop in on your schedule for walks or play time as needed! This flexibility fits your and your pet’s schedule. I’ve worked from home for the last 4 years so taking care of my own dog is a huge part of my day, making sure she gets tummy scratches, play time, pets and of course - treats.
“Paige was wonderful. She was very flexible, responsive, and accommodating. Our dog was more nervous having someone stay at our house than we imagined he would be, and Paige handled it so well and was very patient with him. She got him to walk and eat, and made sure he took his medicine. I would highly recommend Paige!”
“Zubin took excellent care of my senior pup and was incredibly attentive to his needs and routine. I had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful care.”
“Courtney was great! We were gone for 11 days and it was such a relief to know our fur baby was well taken care of, even when he had a run in with a skunk. She handled it like a champ! I highly recommend her.”
“Matt was truly awesome!! He took such good care of my boys and treated my home as it was his own. He sent me puppy photo updates with out me asking and loved on them in my absence. Matt went the extra mile when my flight was delayed 8hrs and let my pups out an extra time and fed them dinner so I didn’t have to worry. My dogs fell in love with Matt the second they met him at the meet and great at my house. I will DEFINITELY be booking Matt again!! Thank you, Matt for taking such good care of Georgie and Patrick!!”
“Carol was excellent dog sitter who I would recommend to everyone. She took the time to understand our dogs needs (and tortoises) and text us updates to make sure we felt reassured. An ideal house guest - she kept the place spotless whilst we were away. Thanks carol - we will definitely use you again!!”
“Katherine was so amazing with our two pups!! It was our first time leaving them since we’ve had a baby, and so I was nervous but she sent us so many updates and gave them tons of love. We felt so comfortable with them in her care. Our house looked great when we got home and the dogs were happy to see us but nice and relaxed. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter!”
“Gayle could not have been better!! She was super attentive, communicative, and committed to making sure our pups were taken care of during her stays. She provided regular updates, pictures and recaps of each day. 10/10 Would book again with no hesitation. Thanks Gayle!”

Hallie did a wonderful job watching our three dogs, one of whom was sick. She kept us well informed and sent pictures and videos every day. She also responded quickly when I reached out to her. We had a situation with our flight home and luckily for us, she was able to stay two additional nights. Our dogs love her and are very comfortable with her.
Jonathon sat with my two dogs for five nights in my home over July 4th. We are thrilled to have found him as a pet sitter. He updated us with pictures everyday, spoiled our pups and was very respectful of our house. Everything was spotless when we returned. Jonathon is trustworthy and dependable. Although, we only met him once prior to being alone in our home we totally trusted his honesty. Thank you Jonathon.
Corrie was amazing! It can be challenging finding someone trustworthy in general, let alone when you are traveling 6,000 miles away for 12 days. Corrie made the entire process seamless, her communication was fantastic and we came back to one very happy and well taken care of pup! Can’t wait to have her come back for our next trip!
Carolyn was amazing with our pups! Like most pet owners, I was nervous leaving them for so long, but was quickly put at ease with Carolyn! She communicated clearly with us, was flexible when we had a change in plans, sent us daily updates on the girls, and was overall so great and helpful with taking care of them. I quickly felt at ease knowing she was caring for them!! Would DEFINITELY recommend her to watch your pets and will be rebooking in the future!
I came home to happy pets. Ruth had a lot to handle between walking two dogs twice a day and helping our cat recover from her illness. Yet she was able to handle it all and keep everyone happy. I would definitely recommend her as a super capable, pet loving sitter!
Julia was incredible. I found her kind of last minute and from the start she was responsive and more than willing to meet my pup and I before I left to go out of town. She was instantly friendly and inviting and my dog took to her immediately. 🥹 While I was gone she sent me a couple of video updates that I loved and before I got back she made a point to tidy up my apartment and finish my laundry which she did not have to do. The cherry on top was walking in to a happy dog a vase of flowers on my kitchen counter. I will most definitely be hiring Julia to dog sit in the future and I know my puppy would be excited to see her again. Thanks, Julia! 🥰

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Brentwood on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,651 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Brentwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Brentwood walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Brentwood maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Brentwood choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brentwood. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
